Actually, I have tended to use only the grays, since I also don't
like a lot of different colors, but I also don't llike a lot of
bright
colors, like everything red. But I suppose that since I would
probably use different shades of the same color for most
of everything, I could change those globals without a negative
impact on appearance. Gee, nothing like taking the old brain
cells and giving them a shake.

My only problem is, whenever I change _any_ color, I get
negative feedback -- "Why did you use _that_ color?", etc.
But I am sick of gray.

Ok. Thanks again.

Veronica
